Review: Underoath – Define The Great Line

Underoath - Define the Great Line
Adam Grundy

It’s really hard to quantify just what Underoath accomplished on their career-defining album called Define The Great Line. Having already achieved breakthrough success with their previous record of They’re Only Chasing Safety, the bar was certainly raised for the band to deliver once again. And what a delivery it was. Underoath’s Spencer Chamberlain recently shared, “Define the Great Line was never just an album to me. It was a world I was building in my head through lyrics and sketches long before the songs were finished. I was dealing with a lot and didn’t always know how to put it into words.” From the thrilling opening notes of “In Regards To Myself” that has the sound of a film projector being turned on, to the final fadeout in the sprawling seven-minute album closer of “To Whom It May Concern,” Underoath were creating pure undeniable audio cinema.

Review: Sleeping With Sirens – An Ending In Itself

Sleeping With Sirens - An Ending In Itself
Adam Grundy

For a band who have just released their eighth studio album, Sleeping With Sirens still seem extremely motivated and hungry for world domination on An Ending In Itself. Produced by veteran hit-maker Will Yip (Turnstile, Circa Survive), the songs that make up this LP are some of the strongest in the band’s catalog and showcase an artist whose dedication to their craft remains unlimited. Sonically, the record feels recharged, energetic, and vibrant as the music that comes through the speakers feels as urgent as Sleeping With Sirens have been in quite some time. While their last few albums were a bit of a mixed bag in terms of similar-sounding songs, An Ending In Itself firmly stands on its own two feet and I’d place the LP right there at the top of Sleeping With Sirens’ discography.

Plain White T’s performed at 35,000 feet for Southwest Airlines.

To mark the occasion, the Plain White T’s took to the skies and surprised Southwest Customers by singing their hit song, “Hey There Delilah,” which continues to draw crowds and resurface on TikTok with billions of plays. The Plain White T’s were one of the first artists to perform onboard a Southwest flight when the airline launched the program 15 years ago.
